Neurodiversity

All the men pictured show Autistic traits.
Three of them are cultural heroes. Two are villains.

So far, the Neurodiversity Movement has focussed on how society
has oppressed those who are neurologically atypical

The movement's cultural heroes are now well know
but it is difficult to talk about the 'dark side' of neurological difference.

This is natural. But if the movement is to mature, it must embrace
the good and the bad.

It's time to get some balance.
